This study was designed to determine the distribution of trans fatty acids (tFAs) isomers of Processed foods commonly consumed in Korea. The tFAs positional isomers were analyzed using GC/MS spectrometer with HP-23 cis/trans FAME, capillary column (50m $\times$ 0.20 mm, id., 0.2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ film thickness) for 41 food samples. TFAs isomers were identified by comparing retention time with standards and GC/MS spectrum. In margarines, the content of tFAs ranged from 4.0% to 25.16% and the most abundant positional isomer of tFAs was C18:1 $\Delta$9t. In oils and fats, lards contained higher levels of tFAs (5.70~16.54%) than shortenings (6.77~10.55%). Shortenings contained higher levels of C18:1 $\Delta$9t (3.1~5.1%) than lard (1.6~4.3%), but corn oils had no tFAs. In seasonings, mayonnaise had no C16:1 $\Delta$9t, whereas C18:3t was detected. The content of tFAs in confectioneries was wide (16.20~52.16%). Among them, instant popcorns contained the highest amount of tFAs. Milk and dairy products showed even distribution of tFAS such as C18:1t, C18:2t, and C18:3t. Predominant tFAS isomer of condensed milk and ice cream was C16:1 $\Delta$9t. Frozen french fries and fried chicken contained higher levels of C18:1$\Delta$9t (9.4%), whereas grilled pork (jowl) had no C18:1 $\Delta$9t. The amount of tFAs per serving size was the highest in popcorn, followed by frozen pizza, frozen french fries, fried chicken, and bakeries.

The volatile sulfur compounds in raw and dried garlic (Allium sativum L.) under various temperatures (50, 60, 70 and $80^{\circ}C$ ) were separated, identified by GC and GC/MS. In hexane extracts of raw garlic, 8 volatile sulfur compounds were identified and 11 compounds were identified in steam distillation extracts. The volatile sulfur compounds of raw and dried garlic were mostly composed of diallyl disulfide, diallyl trisulfide, allyl methyl trisulfide. According to the increase of drying temperature total amounts of volatile sulfur compounds in the hexane extracts decreased to $40{\sim}75$$, and in the steam distillation extracts decreased to $10{\sim}20%$. The amounts of diallyl disulfide, allyl methyl trisulfide decreased more than other volatile sulfur compounds, but diallyl trisulfide comparatively decreased lower.

Oriental pear (Pyrus communis L. cv 'Niitaka') was stored at $0^{\circ}C$ for 5 months and major metabolites involved in blackening of the peel were analyzed by untargeted GC-MS and targeted HPLC methods. In this study, peels of sound and skin-blackened pears were analyzed and compared. Skin-blackened fruit was clearly characterized by a distinctive pattern in changes which included a decrease of malic acid, succinic acid, and ascorbic acid, while an increase of fumaric acid, threonine, and gluconic acid, which indicated both reduced metabolic activity and anti-oxidative capacity of the cells. Chlorogenic acid was a major phenolic compound and the peel of sound fruit showed high levels of free phenolic compounds compared than the peel of skin-blackened fruit which are believed to be related to oxidation of phenolics in skin-blackened tissue. The changes or profiling of major metabolites by targeted or untargeted analysis method could become a useful tool for understanding physiology, disorder mechanism, and identifying metabolic networks connecting primary and secondary metabolism in postharvest research.

Five kinds of red wine from three different grape varieties, such as Gerbong (G), Campbell (C), Moru (M), Gerbong+Moru (70:30, GM), and Gerbong+Campbell(70:30, GC) were prepared in the year of 2000. The total phenolic content and color changes were monitored using hunter colorimeter and spectrophotometry methods during wine processing. The total phenolic content of Gerbong (G), Campbell (C), Moru (M), Gerbong+Moru(70:30, GM), and Gerbong+Campbell(70:30, GC) were 712.6 mg/L, 3472.9 mg/L, 2209.4 mg/L, 2019.4 mg/L, and 1184.5 mg/L, respectively. Between total phenolic content and hunter colorimeter value (L, a, and b) of red wine showed no significant difference, but that of spectrophotometry color value (hue and intensity) were significantly different (p<0.001). The total phenolic content, hue, and intensity values represented significantly different between grape varieties (p<0.01, p<0.001). the hue showed a negative correlation relationship $(r^2=0.8660,\;p<0.0001)$, and that of intensity was a positive $(r^2=0.8304,\;p<0.0001)$ between total phenolic contents. The total phenolic content of red wine could be estimated simply using these equations, $Y_{Total\;phenolic\;content\;(mg/L)}=3319.3-X_{Hue}/2208.36,\;and\;Y_{Total\;phenolic\;content\;(mg/L)}=1230.97-X_{intensity}/98.93$

Gamma-irradiated beef and chicken at the dose levels of 0.5 to 10 kGy were subjected to the detection of radiation-induced 2-alkylcyclobutanones whether irradiated or not. Radiation-induced 2-alkylcyclobutanones were extracted from beef and chicken fats, separated by florisil column chromatography and identified with GC/MS method by selected ion monitoring(SIM). When beef and chicken were irradiated, 2-dodecylcyclobutanone, 2-tetradecylcyclobutanone and 2-(5'-tetradecenyl)cyclobutanone were formed from palmitic, stearic and oleic acids. Concentrations of 2-alkylcyclobutanones were linearly increased with the dose levels of irradiation and depended upon the composition of fatty acids in beef and chicken. Radiation-induced 2-alkylcyclobutanones in irradiated beef and chicken were remarkably detected at 1 kGy and over, while these compounds were not detected in non-irradiated samples. The concentrations of radiationinduced 2-alkylcyclobutanones were relatively constant during 6 months.

In this research, the contents of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin in various species of red pepper produced in the Goesan-gun County were determined by GC-MS. Further, the contents of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin in powdered red pepper products with very hot, hot, normal and mild taste were analyzed to present the degree of hot taste in their products based on contents of capsaicin. The contents of capsaicin in each species of red pepper were from 25.18 mg%(Daetong) to 123.62 mg%(Cheongyang). In the powdered red pepper sold in the market, the contents (mg%) of capsaicin in very hot, hot, normal and mild taste products were 101.98, 67.63, 37.74, and 14.73, respectively. Based on this result, the classification of hot taste by contents of capsaicin was presented in the 7 grades. Namely, the products currently sold in the market were classified into very hot, hot, normal and mild taste. In this research, the degree of hot taste was classified based on contents of capsaicin into 1st grade over 120 mg%, 2nd grade in 100-120 mg%, 3rd grade in 80-100 mg%, 4th grade in 60-80 mg%, 5th grade in 40-60 mg%, 6th grade in 20-40 mg% and 7th grade below 20 mg%. Thus, it is expected that the problem which arises when preparing the products such as kimchi, gochujang and seasoning sauces by using powdered red pepper, namely, the inconsistency of hot taste can be improved and maintained.
